If anyone still don’t know it, I have a degree in Sociology. And yep, it’s not psychology, that’s quite different. Sociologists study the whole society and they are able to read and understand most of the trends and dynamics which are usually the main topics on afternoons tv talk shows. The best sociologists are also able to predict trends and social behaviors basing on several key points.
What is the magic? A great wizard never reveal his tricks, and my tricks costed me almost 5 years of exams, thesis and terrific books.

Sociologists can work almost everywhere because of their skills which give them special super powers. Do you want to know them? Here comes the 10 reasons why you should hire a sociologist.

1- Sociologists love (studying) people. We are totally in love with people. We analize people because we care.
2- Sociologists are perfect for PR roles. See also point No1. We have the right, fair empathy to feeling what people want to hear. Otherwise we do manage people will, in case they don’t actually know what they want.
3- Sociologists are marketing oriented. Sociology is made half by economy, and what does marketing consist of? Easy busy. There’s a piece of marketing heart in every sociologist. You just find it, and I luckily found it of course.
4- Sociologists are multi-tasking people. And multi-roles. Even because it’s basically hard to find a job for a sociologist as a sociologist. You may thank those modern marketing degrees I guess, but it doesn’t matter. It’s the Darwin rule that brings sociologists to a multi-tasking level.
5- Sociologists have a huge general knowledge. That helps us in every occasion. If you could bring a sociologist into a classy reception or into a indie/reggae party, I’m sure that he/she will feel confortable as well, because we can talk to everybody about everything. We have that something that makes us like chameleon. And we enjoy it – heels required for classy reception not included.
6- Sociologists listen to you. We always do. It’s the key for world’s comprehension. If you ever know a sociologist who does not listen to your group’s questions or reasons, beware from him/her. Distrust from imitations!
7- Sociologists don’t have a Professional Register. This means that we don’t require a wage rise for paying the Register’s fees. But for paying the house rent yes ;)
8- Sociologists got creativity. Otherwise how we could come up with theories to interpret reality?
9- Sociologists have both excellent writing and verbal skills. We must always be able to get by in the best way. We have been trained to express ourself in every way, because we can chance on a super conference or a super publication. So we must be ready for that.
10- Sociologists will never let you down. Whatever we will say, you will always find a positive feedback or a trace of truth. Because we never lie. And we make few mistakes.
